It's hard to say a lot about a $2 detent. The Griffin M2 sights I got were black but had a light gray front sight post detent, so I picked one of these up to keep it all black.

It works perfectly and the price is right.

A lot of the other reviews mention these being extremely stiff and difficult to deploy / flip up. The set I got was not like that. They deploy smoothly and lock into place solidly.

The mounting kit that comes with these isn't my favorite, but it's not as bad as people are making it out to be either. Two small metal shims are included which sit between the picatinny slot and the mounting screw. As long as you use these shims, the mounting shoes will not damage your rail.

I paired these with a $2 CMMG A2 front sight post detent just to fix the look, as the one that comes with this is light gray.

This feels so much more solid than the cassette-style drop-in trigger it replaced, while also being less expensive. Requires only 0.25 lb additional pull weight, but feels significantly more stable. No complaints yet whatsoever and I'm not looking back.

These are very rough and grippy. They look pretty awesome when installed and the fact that each piece only covers a single m-lok slot means that you can create an exact fit every time.

There are a lot of good things to say about them. My opinion is that they make for a very functional while not entirely comfortable grip.

Installation can suck if you're putting a lot of them on. It can be tricky to get rows of them to sit flat next to each other; they tend to want to overlap a little or push against adjacent panels. A bit of extra pressure fixes this, but my thumb was bloody by the time I got it all looking perfect.

In the end I passed these off to a friend, but I still like them and would recommend them to anyone that is looking for an aggressively-textured low-profile polymer rail cover.

These are my favorite polymer rail covers so far. Nicer panels exist, but nothing that I've seen in this price range beats the GA set.

This comes with four panels altogether, but only enough hardware to install three of them at a time. Two of these have opposing curves and are meant to be installed on either side of the handguard. The other two panels are flat and are meant for the bottom -- one of the flat panels has a handstop and the other does not, so you can take your pick.

The grid texture on these panels is somewhat grippy without being aggressive. This texture will not grab yuor hand, so don't expect anything super sticky. It is, however, entirely functional and provides an amazing look to both long and short rifles. Each panel is 3 m-lok slots wide.

Since the side panels are not entirely flat, they won't conform to every handguard perfectly. I tried them on a Radical Firearms handguard first and they fit like a glove. I tried them on a Forward Controls Designs handguard second, and the slimmer/rounder profile of that handguard made it so that the rail panels "hung off" from the edges a bit, which I wasn't a big fan of.

I'll also say that one of the included t-nuts mysteriously snapped in half while I was giving it only 15 in-lbs of torque.

Those caveats don't stop me from giving this set two thumbs up though. I really like it!

This grip is lightweight, comfortable, and versatile. It allows for several different grip styles and feels pretty good when used with any of them.

In most cases that would be the essence of the review, but unfortunately I had a very poor experience with this grip. There's no hole in the bottom, so the rear screw is entirely inaccessible to anything other than the mini wrench included in the packaging.

I applied a very modest amount of torque when installing, but the screw must have cross-threaded or something. This spells trouble since there is no way to access it with a conventional bit or driver. Trying to remove the screw with the included wrench stripped it out immediately, and I tried every trick in the book to no avail.

About an hour after installing this grip I was using a hacksaw to chop it in half, since this is literally the only way to access the rear screw.

I didn't expect Fortis support to do much for me, but I contacted them anyways to find out. I was told that I could have shipped my entire handguard to them to have them remove it for me, but at this point there wasn't anything they could do. Shipping the handguard would have been pretty impractical, and probably not much cheaper than the grip itself.

Of course there was some degree of user error that led to my botched install, but even if they'd bothered to provide a torque rating with their grip, I'm not sure how one would accurately apply it. The inaccessibility of the screw means that if anything gets
